Do we have an equivalent of this trope for phrases? For instance, some of the interjections in the Ace Attorney series such as "TAKE THAT!" and "NOT SO FAST!" don't fit this trope because of the one word limit, but otherwise embody the spirit of the trope. Is there a place where they would actually fit?
Logic, my dear Zoe, merely enables one to be wrong with authority.
Why was this page locked, again? I mean to ask why was it locked back after Septimus Heap unlocked it?

Does this only include single words, or does it include times when one word in a sentence is shouted? Specifically, in a recent episode of Warehouse 13 one of the characters uses the line "I think we should RUUUUUNNNN!", with only the last word being shouted. I know I've seen this used elsewhere as well, fairly often actually. Does it fit in here?
Cheers.
Slade's 'it's CHRISTMAS!' fits nowhere else as really the 'it's' isn't part of the shout but if you shout 'Christmas' by itself it makes no sense. It doesn't fit in any of the subtropes and as a Slade fan this troper demands it be put somewhere in the shouting. Tis not a This! Is! SPARTA!

It should be clear in the description, but sentences should not be allowed, even if only one word is shouted.
I'm on the internet. My arguments are invalid.
It seems to me that a lot of these examples probably belong on Say My Name.

It belongs on both. If Say My Name were a Sub-Trope, it would apply. But it's a Sister Trope, and they fit on both pages.

A listing on Canonical List of Subtle Trope Distinctions would probably help.
See you in the discussion pages.
